I know if I had the cash those systems all would have been gone as soon as they were posted

Be neat if we could do a community raffle, with someone willing to pay the electricity costs and the deal being that they not sell the system, and pass it along to another long-term member if they wanted to get rid of the system.

Haha, OK, is anyone willing to maintain and house and pay electric for this monster?

I would say it would have to be a long-time member for this to be successful. Not to say that some newer members would not do a great job, but if the name is well-known to all we might be more successful in getting the funds raised in the first place.

Shipping might be a consideration too.

I would take it on but my apt cannot accommodate it without the breakers going off constantly.
